German or baroque fingering?

Initially, the German fingering is easier and allows players relatively quickly to play simple tunes in simple keys. However, if you wish to play sonatas and concertos at some later date, then starting with the baroque fingering is certainly to be recommend. At first, it appears more complicated because even with a basic scale you have to employ forked fingering, but it enables players to play chromatically in tune over two octaves.
